What is the best thing you've done in the last 5 years?
So many things I'm just gonna say the first five I think of: Marrying Chloe, writing a kids book (almost done!), going to a dog halloween party in Tokyo, driving through Cali last year and watching Tilly (dog) grow up.
How is life in Australia compared to Canada where you are originally from?
I love my life in Sydney but my hometown is very special. Very slow paced, honest and working class, and surrounded by natural beauty. Really amazing creatives come out of there as well, it's just on a much smaller scale that Sydney. Living here you have a bigger peer group which helps you learn different perspectives, you can be exposed to a lot more.
If you could have dinner with anybody, dead or alive, who would it be and why?
I get too nervous trying to impress people I haven't met before, I like to feel like myself so I would choose to have dinner with my family.
When I first came here from Canada I did a shoot with Jordan Graham that was sick, back in like 2012.
Where ever me Chloe and Tilly pitch a tent.

Forrest Roofing and Painting provides a complete range of gutter protection systems in Richmond, VA, and we can easily customize a solution to fit your home or place of business.


Get Crackin'! A familiar saying that I love to say to my kids, but same holds true for us as leaders. Inspiring action to get moving on what matters most is followed by the sense of urgency to make changes. The business world is ever fast and moving. There is no time to waste.
Capability is defined as the extent of someone's ability or power against a standard. Is good enough sometimes good enough for you? Do you find yourself plowing through rather than making a difference? Time to get a quick check; get your head in the game.
1. SHOW UP – Come ready to play every day.
Problems at home, problems at work; it doesn't matter for a capable leader. No matter how you feel, what you face, or how challenging you expect it to be, show up and show up BIG. Because the fact of the matter is – no one cares what you're going through, especially as a leader. People are counting on you and they expect you to "fit" into the role of leadership and to have those capabilities.
2. KEEP IMPROVING – Consistently ask why and strive for excellence.
What does that mean? Coach Shula gave his team 1 day to relish the victory of a win, and the same 1 day to feel disappointment of a loss. Then that was it. For tomorrow is always another day to take you closer to your goals. Reflect. Know why. Learn. Move on.
3. SURPASS EXPECTATIONS – Go the extra mile.
Do the job, and then some, day after day. Mediocrity is not acceptable. No one will ever win any awards or get any positive press by simply maintaining. Ask yourself what is good versus great?
Good is achieving what is expected of you. Maintaining on your job description and hitting your numbers are good. Great is going beyond the norm, taking an extra step, thinking ahead and anticipating. Exceeding. This makes people notice you. Decide to be great.
This is about building trust and inspiring others to follow you. Through your ability to accomplish and do you inspire and build trust. However, capability for a leader isn't necessarily the ability to DO it, but rather the ability to know HOW and WHY. This requires a natural curiosity for your work, your team, your industry. Do your research and learn the ins and outs. Apply it to painting a vision to explain to how and why so your team can do…and EXCEL.
No one stays idle as the journey of leadership is underway. You either move forward, or you move backward. Research who you are, dedicate time and money into your own development. The journey keeps you moving, either way. Move forward, grow, learn be EXTRAORDINARY!


Apply directly to lips whenever you need a moisture boost or 'kiss' of juicy, 'your lips but better' colour.
This was a straight up waste of money for me. Thought I'd get this item as a bday present for myself. Not too happy about it at all. It feels grainy on the lips because of the glitter. the balm isn't actually hydrating (go for the Dior Balmglow instead- it works). It looks lovely. But the actual product itself is just the worst. Also, almost forgot to mention, the smell of the product is WAY too much! You can taste the smell! Doesn't go away.
Wonderful lipstick, gives my lips care and beauty. I love this tool and will buy more. You can use it yourself, but you can and as a means of care, I have in shade 1, comfortable shape, beautiful design.


Who are these people and why don't I know them? If they believe that Obama's a Muslim I'm just thinking I could have a cadre of people lining up to pay good money just to see if the Bieber's head will actually pop out every now and then.
The number of Americans who believe -- wrongly -- that President Obama is a Muslim has increased significantly since his inauguration and now account for nearly 20 percent of the nation's population. Those results, from a new Pew Research Center survey, were drawn from interviews done before the president's comments about the construction of an Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero, and they suggest that there could be serious political danger for the White House as the debate continues.

Star Trek: Discovery season 4 premiere date hopes at CBS All Access
Star Trek: Discovery	 January 7, 2021
Following today's finale, it makes sense to want a Star Trek: Discovery season 4 premiere date more or less immediately. How could you not? The season 3 story absolutely ended in a way that set the stage for more — we won't spoil anything here, though, in the event that you haven't had a chance to watch it yet.
For now, just know this: There is another season coming down the road! As a matter of fact, new episodes are already in production in Toronto — because of the filming location, the series is not subject to some of the shutdowns that have impacted things here in the Los Angeles area. Of course, filming does not mean that the show will be back soon — for the time being, we're anticipating a premiere at some point in the fall. Once production is concluded, it will still take a good bit of time to edit and piece these stories together. The visual effects for this series of course take a good bit of time.
There is one thing worth noting beyond the premiere date, and that is that CBS All Access will soon be going by a different name. A rebrand is coming soon where it will be Paramount+, and a home for content across much of the ViacomCBS family of networks. The Star Trek programming that you have now will still be there, alongside a number of other shows.
We imagine that later this year, we'll get some more specific news on Star Trek: Discovery season 4, whether it be a new trailer or information on casting. Remember that there are also some more series out there within this universe, whether it be Star Trek: Picard or the spin-off featuring Michelle Yeoh, who departed Discovery earlier this season.

On Cuckoldry and the Revelations of Sexual Psychopaths and Predators: A Socio-political Analysis
by Dr. Emanuel Paparella
Concerning the latest obscene lewd revelations of the dirty old man named Donald Trump eager to become our president, I wonder if anyone has observed a social phenomenon well known in Italy and other places. It is called cuckoldry, utilized as a socio-political weapon. Let me give an example from the history of Rome, an Emperor such as Caligula or Napoleon invites a prominent Roman senator to dinner. The guest comes to dinner with his wife. In the middle of the dinner the all powerful domineering Emperor (we would call him an alpha male today) gets up, takes the hand of the senator's wife and graciously takes her to his bedroom. He would shortly come back to the table and comment on the sexual performance of the woman he had had sexual relations with, while the poor cockled husband squirms in his chair.
This kind of sexual deviancy and psychopathology actually happened at the court of Caligula and Nero. Now, remember that Caligula and Nero are, to use Trump's words, "stars of their times and stars can do anything to compliant women", especially when the whole episode becomes a reality show; in fact, women are supposed to like it and consider it an honor to be held forcibly by their crotch and be invited to the high honor of sleeping with the supreme leader of the Empire. It's something to brag about with other women at the forum. Of course the husbands don't like it much; it reveals how impotent—in every respect—they really are, but they have precious little to say in the matter. In fact the whole purpose of the exercise is to humiliate other men considered rivals but not powerful enough to react. It is a bully show of power in a psychopathic power game taking on sado-masochistic sexual coloring. And so, once again, history repeats itself and those who ignore it are bound to repeat it.
Family Values at the Court of Donald Trump
Moreover, as I wrote some time ago, you will now see the spectacle of the Republican party which is complicit in this veritable charade, which created the Frankenstein monster years ago, which never took responsibility for that creation, to now giving the impression of indignation for violations of moral and ethical principles; after all their wives and daughters watch TV too. But what they are really sorry for is that Trump has gotten caught with his pants down and association with him may mean losing their next election to Congress.
So, as already predicted, there will be a premature unofficial and illegal impeachment proceeding in the next few days with the aim of substituting the vice-presidential nominee (Pence) to Trump. But it will probably not work. The sexual deviant and predator, who has gotten considerably stronger and has fattened up considerably since he was created some years ago, will come to the invited meeting table to discuss his resignation with a suicide vest on and a remote control in his pocket. He will threaten to detonate his candidacy and blow the Republican Party to kingdom come with it, to let Samson die with all the Philistines who do not think much of Trump's blinding brilliance.
One can imagine the founder of the Republican Party, Lincoln, turning in his grave and asking in sheer exasperation: can this party descend any lower? One can also imagine him repeating his famous slogan: "you can fool some of the people all of the times, or all the people some of the times, but you cannot fool all the people all the times." Obviously Trump and the Republican Party believe they are brilliant enough to do just that. Time will tell. It will be like the proverbial canary in the cave. If they manage to fool all the people all the times, it can only mean one thing that democracy is already dead in the United States of America and the Empire, alas, has lasted much less than the Caligula and Nero's Roman Empire.

P.S. The latest on the continuing saga of Super-predator Bragadoccio: he and his cronies now go around saying that the tape that just surfaced is just rhetoric and words but he never did any of the action revealed by his shabby attitude toward women. Meanwhile, a few women have already surfaced claiming that indeed there were deeds (and sexual assault crimes) and not just words. More of this charade is sure to follow at the second debate in a few hours where at attempt will be made to make Hillary Clinton the enabler and head conspirator against Bill Clinton's women. It gets more interesting by the hour. We may have surpassed the vileness of Caligula's times.
P.S.S. As the latest follow-up after the second debate, it is probably safe to report that it was a dreary puny debate devoid of any vision and worthy of a Donald Trump's mind-set where, far from showing any contrition for his predatory bragadoccio he actually threatened his opponent with jail should he win the presidency. He seemed oblivious to the fact that such tactics belong to third world dictatorial countries and not democracies. It will surely get even more interesting when other revelations follow in the last month of the campaign. The worst is still to come.
Jessica Stevens 2016-10-10 21:52:35
I am not writing to justify Trump's "locker-room banter," but rather I just want to say that this type of talk does not only emerge from the male mouth. In many instances, I have heard modern women discuss their sexual exploits and conquests in similar lewd terms. Again, I am not justifying this type of Bragadoccio talk, but I just want to point out that I have also directly heard women openly talk that way about their sex lives.

The F1 hybrid sterility in indica/japonica crosses is the major barrier in developing hybrid rice varieties between these two diverse germplasm. The sterility problem in japonica/indica hybrids can be overcome by using wide compatibility genes. The objective of this study was to identify wide compatibility varieties (WCVs) in some tropical japonica rice. Twenty five tropical japonica varieties as male parents were crossed with indica (IR64) and japonica (Akitakomachi) testers as female parents. The crosses were planted following a randomized complete block design with three replications.
Varieties having average spikelet fertility of more than 70% with both the indica and japonica testers were rated as WCVs. Result from this study showed that six tropical japonica varieties were classified as WCVs, i.e., Cabacu, Grogol, Kencana Bali, Klemas, Lampung Lawer, and Napa. Hybrid sterility is caused by partial sterility of male and female gametes. The WCVs from the present study can be used in hybrid rice breeding program to solve hybrid sterility in indica/japonica hybrids.

Anthony Loxton, reluctant third-generation funeral director by day, is by night Tony the Fox, a guitarist in the bars of Kalk Bay. It looks like there's no escape from the burden of the past. But when Tony's one-night stand, Lily, arrives in a body bag at the Loxton Funeral Parlour, he surprises himself by breaking his own rules.
As the boundaries separating the two worlds he has created for himself collapse, Anthony's journey of self-discovery begins, accompanied by a cast of unforgettable characters. A chain of events takes him to the edge of tragedy and disaster and the back again. He discovers that the living are more fragile than the dead and that joy can arise in the most unlikely circumstances.
"..I am sorry it took me ages to get to it, but the wait was so worth it. Apart from anything else, the book includes a cast of unforgettable characters, including a Polish countess who came to Kalk Bay and became a "sea witch". Who can resist a character like that? Loved every page of it and wish there would be a sequel." – Karina Szczurek, writer, publisher and literary critic, December 2019

Nine Fun Ways to Buy Access to The Clintons
Andrew Stiles - February 19, 2015 2:53 PM
Reports that the Bill, Hillary, & Chelsea Clinton Foundation has been raking in donations from foreign governments and billionaires have raised serious ethical concerns with respect to Hillary's forthcoming White House run. The foundation has defended the practice of accepting foreign donations, which was put on hold during Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State at the request of the Obama administration.
"The Clinton Foundation has strong donor integrity and transparency practices that go above and beyond what is required of U.S. charities and well beyond the practices of most peer organizations," the group said in a statement. Still, even her liberal supporters have acknowledged the poor optics.
For foreign governments and billionaires, donating to the Clinton Foundation is one of the only ways to buy access to the powerful political dynasty. For the rest of us, however, there are plenty of fun alternatives. And the best part? You don't have to pick just one!
1. Donate to Hillary's campaign
Her 2016 campaign apparatus doesn't officially exist yet, but it will. However, if you were smart, you'd have already donated to her previous campaigns—for Senate in 2000 and 2006, and for president in 2008. The top donors over the course of Clinton's political career include Citigroup ($782,327), Goldman Sachs ($711,490), JP Morgan Chase ($620,919), Morgan Stanley ($543,065), Time Warner ($411,296), Lehman Brothers ($362,853), Merrill Lynch ($292,303), and Credit Suisse Group ($290,600).
2. Donate to 'Ready for Hillary'
Until her campaign is up and running, this pro-Hillary Super PAC is an exciting way to buy access to the Clintons. The group has already raised more than $12 million this cycle, and has received $25,000 donations from Democratic heavy hitters such as Warren Buffett and George Soros.
3. Donate to the Clinton Foundation
As previously mentioned, it's one of the only options for foreign plutocrats. U.S. corporations are more than welcome to contribute as well. Prominent donors include the governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, as well as a number of Saudi billionaires, and a foundation run by Victor Pinchuk, a Ukrainian steel magnate who has been accused of illicit trade practices by the U.S. government.
And don't forget Canadian mining tycoon Frank Guistra, a member of the Clintons' inner circle who has pledged more than $130 million to the foundation. Guistra's donations were announced after his company was awarded lucrative mining contracts in Kazakhstan, a country with an abysmal human rights record. By sheer coincidence, Bill Clinton just happened to accompany Guistra on a trip to Kazakhstan to meet with President Nursultan Nazarbayev just days before the contracts came through.
4. Donate to the Center for American Progress
The left-wing think tank has been quite explicit in selling itself as a means to purchase an audience with Hillary Clinton. Documents obtained by the Hill revealed that CAP offered individuals who donated at least $250,000 an opportunity to meet with Clinton at the group's 10th anniversary party. CAP's former chairman, John Podesta, is expected to play a prominent role on Hillary's 2016 campaign team.
5. Pay Hillary (or Bill) to give a speech
This is one of the more expensive options. But it's well worth the cost, especially if you were savvy enough to get in on the action early. Goldman Sachs, for example, purchased a couple of Hillary speeches back in 2013 for the bargain sum of $200,000 a piece. The price has gone up considerably since then. She currently charges public universities a "special rate" of $300,000. An hour with Bill, on the other hand, will set you back as much as $750,000.
This is another way foreign entities can buy their way into Clintonland. One of the Hillary's most recent speeches was hosted by a Canadian banking giant accused of helping Enron commit fraud. Bill Clinton has made millions giving speeches in countries all over the world, including China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and the Cayman Islands, among others.
6. "Invest" in Marc Mezvinsky's hedge fund
Clinton son-in-law Marc Mezvinsky possesses very few skills as a money manager, but that doesn't mean he can't provide lucrative returns in the long run. His connection to one of the most powerful political families on earth is a major reason why his boutique hedge fund, Eaglevale Partners, attracted "standing-room only crowds" during early meetings with prospective investors. Eaglevale clients include Lloyd Blankfein, chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs, and Marc Lasry, a billionaire hedge fund titan and owner of the Milwaukee Bucks. As you'll see, Lasry knows a thing or two about buying access to the Clintons.
7. Give Chelsea Clinton a low-intensity, six-figure job
This can be less direct way to curry favor with the Clinton's, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Just ask billionaire financial tycoon Marc Lasry if he regrets giving Chelsea Clinton a plum gig at his $13.3 billion hedge fund. NBC News didn't think twice about paying Chelsea $600,000 a year to conduct interviews with the Geico Gecko as a "special correspondent." Granted, that is a relatively paltry sum, by Clinton standards. Hillary can make that in about two hours.
8. Own a private jet called the "Lolita Express"
This is one of the more exotic options for getting in with the Clintons. For one, it is only likely to work on Bill, who took multiple trips on a private jet owned by billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Locals in the U.S. Virgin Islands referred to the jet as the "Lolita Express" because of Epstein's habit of flying young girls, skilled in the art of sensual "massage," to his 78-acre mansion for "parties." Flight logs show that Clinton shared more than a dozen flights with a woman suspected of helping Epstein solicit underage girls for sexual acts. Just a coincidence, probably. Could happen to any of us.
9. Invest in mobility-enhancing exoskeleton technology
A somewhat speculative play, to be sure, but it could yield benefits sooner than you might expect. It has not yet been definitively established that Hillary Clinton was not holding a walker on the cover of People magazine, and the extent of her mobility remains in doubt. Therefore, a savvy investor might want to look into developing an advanced exoskeleton suit that could help negate the onset of old age. The military is already working on some promising prototypes, but an ambitious billionaire in the mold of Tony Stark would likely be able to have greater success outside the reach of government bureaucracy. If successful, a coveted spot within the Clinton's inner circle would be yours for the taking.
Get yours, America.

Home » Poetry
And then came that night
Staring startled
Four eyes wide
and we said:
everything's changed.
this is a whole new world now.
now there is nothing between us
And we laughed
because that could mean what it meant
or its opposite
But we knew.
And when we talked
About you leaving someday
I promised to live
in the new world
Where We'll Live
I was tearing my life to pieces
You were sitting in the charred ruins of your house
You said: "My house is sad"
I said: "I will make my home with you"
You said: "I built you a house"
I said: "I will make it a home for us."
Then you said: "I'm tired and cold. I've been teaching a long time."
And I said: "We could move to Spain, and I will grow you oranges."
Then you said: "I want your home to be your dream"
And I said: "We will live in Puerto Rico, and I raise our food."
And you said: "I will write poetry in the sun, and raise orchids"
And I said: "I will kiss your head as I go to the fields and bring you dinner."
And then one day I thought you left, orchids wilted, zoo stilled.
But instead you moved in with me.
Now I say: "I will give you a home in my heart"
You say: "I will make my home with you."

I take 1 piece of each flavor of pie, and group them together someplace in the room. The kids have 4 "stations" in which to choose a piece of pie. If they pick a piece of their pie, they keep it; if it's not there's, they put it back. First person to have all 4 pieces of their pie wins.
This is definitely a favorite of my kids; they often ask if we're going to play it again later in the year.

did you rent the movie shazam as well??
I rented it once...I was just too curious. I mean, who can resist a rapping genie that comes out of a boom-box?! I know I couldn't. And I must say it was a terrible movie.
I remember playing Shaq Fu at this guy's house and it was the probably the funniest thing we had ever played. Such a bad game...such a pity.


Liverpool have supposedly been dealt a transfer blow, with long-time target Piotr Zielinski agreeing over a new deal with Italian Serie A side Napoli.
The Polish midfielder has been tracked by the Reds for some time now and they looked close to sealing a move for him when he was pictured wearing a Liverpool jersey with his name on the back in 2016, while he was still contracted to Udinese.
Napoli ended up winning the race for the player, however, and they are now on the verge of tying him down to a long-term deal, According to the Corriere del Mezzogiorno.
The 24-year-old is a great dribbler and passer of the ball and has scored seven goals and handed out two assists in all competitions for Napoli this season.
He is expected to put pen to paper on a deal which should see him remain at Napoli until 2023, where he will earn €2.2m yearly salary along with bonuses.
The Partenopei will also remove the €63m release clause which exists in his current deal, making it more difficult for other teams to sign him.

Home newsitems EU stimulus plans equal to Obama's, but faster, says Devedjian to EuroFora after capitals' tour
EU stimulus plans equal to Obama's, but faster, says Devedjian to EuroFora after capitals' tour
EU Economy boost plans equal to Obama's US plan, but faster, says French Minister Devedjian to "EuroFora" after capitals' tour
* World-record breaking, 600 km/h High Speed innovative Train TGV, produced at Strasbourg's outskirts, became a Symbol for EU Economy revival, after French key Minister Devedjian's statements to "EuroFora" that the "addition" of "coordinated" EU stimulus plans is "equal" but "faster" to new US President Obama's plan, while Stock markets were still wondering which way to go.
Revealing the main results of a fast-track trip to 4 EU Capitals before a series of crucial EU and Global Summits, Devedjian stressed "Mutual Support and information", "TransNational Measures" and a "global European Policy", as agreed ways to add the "complementary" effects of national recovery plans. So that EU's comparatively faster moves, lesser debt and strong Savings can equal USA's impressive plan, and, taken all together, incite economic actors to move swiftly in order to seize a chance to "anticipate" and be ahead.
Speaking shortly after US President Obama unveiled in Denver his plan to boost Fast Trains, (including $1·3bn for Amtrak, and $8·4bn for high speed passenger rail projects), Devedjian said SNCF, the French Rail company's 2008 Benefits from new Strasbourg High Speed line of the already existing TGV, made it possible to "anticipate" and start working from early February 2009, on new projects for "rail renovation" even before one € arrives from the Government's stimulus plan, voted at the end of January...
In reply to "EuroFora"'s question if, after his tour of the biggest EU capitals and EU-chair, the Czech Republic, he hopes that sufficient Stimulus' measures will be taken and that the forthcoming EU Economy Summit, at the 1st of March, will be succesful, the French Minister looked upbeat :
- "We went to London, Berlin, Prague and Rome, together with Minister for EU affairs, Bruno Le Maire" this week, he noted in his first statements after the unprecedented move, made at the initiatiative of French President Nicolas Sarkozy, at the eve of a G8's EU Members Summiy hosted by Chancelor Angie Merkel in Berlin on Sunday.
- "Everybody" among EU's 27 Member Countries "is starting to deal with (Economy) Recovery Plans, including f.ex. the (small) Czech Republic, which is launching a 2,5 Billion € plan, even if it hadn't initially foreseen to do so".
- "The main aim of our trip wasn't to interfere into government policies", since "recovery plans have, first of all, National aims"', "but mainly to establish a Coordination between the existing Stimulus plans".
The move was welcomed by new German Economy Minister, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg, who reportedly "called for a Coordinated European action against the Crisis", while meeting with Devedjian, earlier this week.
- "Because we have many Stimulus plans which all point at the same direction : Create activities there where there isn't any, create jobs there where is unemployment". So that national "measures can be Complementary" to each other'', added Devedjian in his reply to "EuroFora"'s question.¨
- "Thus, we established some Rules, with these four countries :"
"1) We inform each other on all measures under consideration by each one, and we provide mutual support to implement the measures thus decided by each country."
"2) We try to establish together some Trans-national measures : F.ex. in Railroads, car Highways, Energy and electricity or Gas transport, etc., where we can take Common measures"
"3) Last (but not least), we would like to formulate a real global European recovery policy, in particular by adding the effects of all stimulus measures".
"F.ex. the (French) President of the Republic, (Nicolas Sarkozy) has just anounced 2,6 Billion € measures for recovery in favor of the most vulnerable People exposed to the economic Crisis. Some critics claim that it's not enough. But this is added to other measures of the same kind, which had been already decided : "
(../..)
"F.ex., a) At the beginning of April, we shall distribute an advance for the "active solidarity revenue" (RSA) of 3.800.000 persons ; b) The "prize to crash" (old cars) is also a stimulus for car sales ; c) The RSA, from July, will represent 1,5 Billion € more than what they initially had with RMI, and d) the Social Transferts (alias : "automatic stabilisators") augment in 2009 for 17 Billions € in favor of the most exposed People".
"Obviously, all those measures are added together : "
- "In every (EU) Country there are various recovery measures of this kind, and, when we compare with what is going on in the US, with the Obama Plan, which has not started yet, while ours is already being implemented, f.ex. I've just inaugurated the 1st rail wagon of SNCF's recovery plan : Our Stimulus Plan is starting. While, in the US it will have to pass now through each one of the States, once it's adopted at the Federal level. And similarly in Germany, where it must passs through each one of the Landers. Thus, it's implementation is obviously longer."
- "The Idea is to show to everybody, that when Europe adds all Stimulus measures it has already or is currently taking, then, (regardless of numbers, which evolve from day to day), our (EU) plan is perfectly equivalent to the US efforts".
-"Indeed, the Economic recovery Actions are considerable, and should incite Economic Actors to be more optimist"
This goes even more when France's, Germany's, and the rest of Europe's Debts are certainly important, but less than USA's sky-rocketing Debt, While both France, Germany and several other EU Countries also have "very strong Savings".
So,"it's important to boost projects which are ready to start. Anticipate and accelerate is crucial in order to be more competitive, attractive and ahead" of others, Devedjian stressed.
An example was given by Strasbourg's local General Council (Department of lower Rhine), the 1st in France to adopt a "Local Stimulus Plan to generate more than 775 million € in 2009", according to his President, Guy-Dominique Kennel. Devedjian was welcomed by Kennel and his councillors in his superbe riverside building, glad to have already made the same fast-track move as US President Obama, to condition funds to projects' ability to start working in a few Months, "until June".
- "We don't ignore the difficulties. But we want to face them, confident in our capacity to understand and act" for "positive effects to start to be felt from the next weeks", said Kennel. "Have trust : Don't wait for Banks. Invest !", was Kennel's advise to Alsace, the 2nd richest area of France, after that of Paris.
- "We are all United when it comes to Economic recovery", because fighting against Crisis is a common cause, stressed from the outset Devedjian, when Kennel introduced him to a "Socialist" local politician, Jean-Jacques Gsell, observing that "despite that, he voted for our recovery plan". Gsell took it for granted, and joined Journalists in asking Devedjian to fund 3 local projects, getting immediately a first Ministerial answer for 2 of them.
But, when it comes into "anticipating" and "accelerating", what's best than Fast Trains' symbolic actuality ?
Until now, before Obama's big move (See supra), all US Administrations had so much neglected High Speed Trains, by focusing only on cars and planes, that USA's ranking in the World on fast rail was astonishingly ....below Turkey's (!) On the contrary, core EU countries as France, closely followed by Germany, are competing with Japan for World's record 1st place...
Meanwhile, a brand new High Speed Train "AGF" (TGV's successor) was unveiled by Alstom in 2008, at the presence of President Sarkozy, with an innovative Motor Architecture allowing passengers' space gains and a 360 km/h speed in established links.
On February 2009, SNCF, TGV's Railroad company, anounced a strategic, pioneer freight link from France to ..China, able to transport merchandises at a 12.000 kms' long railroad through France, Germany, Poland and Russia before 2011.Cheaper than Airplane, Rail is also faster than Ship transport : Instead of 6 Weeks, to arrive from Chinese to European Seaports, SNCF aims only 10 Days...
But the way leading to the 2009 spectacular InterContinental strategic move, had been paved by Franco-Germano-Russian Summits in Paris since 2005, "EuroFora" remembers well... Another topical example of "anticipating" key European projects, which add now succesful decisions opening to EU economy big new Horizons preparing 2011...
Scientific innovation joined to Faith for Human Rights, Eastern Partnership and fight against the Crisis, but above all, the need to overcome the "Crisis of Trust" from EU Citizens, are the main priorities for new EU Parliament's President, Polish Jerzy Buzek, that a 555-votes-strong majority of MEPs on July 14, Strasbourg made a living symbol of the fact that, 20 years after the fall of Berlin Wall (1989 - 2009) there is no more an Eastern or Western Europe, but only one Europe, as the head of the largest group of MEPs, ChristianDemocrats/EPP, Joseph Daul, stressed after the event.
Speaking later to a group of Strasbourg's Journalists, including "EuroFora", the new EU Parliament's President clarified his stance on concrete topical issues, as f.ex. that of Turkey's controversial EU bid, which was one of the main issues of the June 2009 Electoral campain, clearly won by his party of ChristianDemocrats/EPP : - "At present, Turkey does not fullfil none of EU conditions", he stressed, (See infra).
Buzek is well known in Strasbourg and to "EuroFora" as EU Rapporteur for the Framework Program of Scientific Research and Development of Technologies. A Natural Science Professor from the Historic and Religious landmark Polish City of Częstochowa, active in the famous Solidarnosk grass-roots social movement, he served 4 years as Prime Minister (1997-2001), before being elected as MEP in 2004 and 2009, after he brillantly won the latest EU Election at the head of his party (EPP) almost doubling the number of its MEPs from 15 to 28 !
- "Innovation" and "Energy safety", as well as fight against the "Cimat change", but also "Eastern Partnership", the "Mediterranean", "Strategic partnerships" with Russia, the USA, etc, and the search for "solutions to the Economic Crisis" that EU Citizens "expect" from us, will be his "priorities", announced from the outset the new EU Parliament's President, reminding also that the quest for "Human and Civic Rights" played an important role in his experience with the Solidarnosc grass-roots social movement in Poland's History
But, the most important of all, is the urgent need to overcome the "Crisis of Trust" between EU Institutions and the People he stressed : - EU "Citizens often don't understand us", denounced Buzek, launcing a call to "do anything for EU Citizens to understand our work" in EU Parliament : "We (MEPs) need to make EU Citizens involved" in "what we are doing every week, in Strasbourg and Brussels", he proposed. Pointing f.ex. to the hot "Debates" with "strong arguments" exchanged between MEPs during the preparation of their Legislative Decisions, in Committees, delivering often hard struggles between initially opposed points of view, long before forging a majority at the final vote, sometimes more than a year..
Therefore, EU Parliament will be "open to your criticism, for discussion and exchange of views", he promissed to Journalists in Strasbourg.
In this way, Buzek, in fact, highlighted "EuroFora"s main idea, that we strongly advocate since 1997-2007, to systematicaly and actively involve EU Citizens in public debates during the decision-making process of important EU measures, which affect their lives and the society in which they live, (and not only just a few weeks each 4 or 5 Years at the eve of EU Elections)...
This is related also to the symbolic gift that Buzek chose to give to the out-going former EU Parliament's President, Hans Gert Poettering, (2007-2009), his collegue in the ChristianDemocrats/EPP, who brillantly won 2009 EU Elections in Germany : A genuine statute of sainte Barbara crafted in Silesia's black Coal by Polish Miners : Those simple but strong people who fought for social change against some technocrats and bureaucrats disguissed into so-called "real-socialists" of old times. (PHOTO).
It's enough to have seen a popular open air mass, at Warsaw's center, with many thousands of people, old and young, simple workers and intellectuals mixed together, with references to Poland's history and struggles for survival and liberty, through various ages, (as fex. that organized at the eve of CoE's 2005 panEuropean Heads of State and Government for the beatification of late Pope John-Paul II), in order to understand what such symbols mean..
But, overcoming the "Crisis of Trust" with EU Citizens obviously implies also to rectify any errors done in the past, fex. on Turkey's controversial EU bid, with controversial decisions taken in 1999 and 2004 to give a "candidate" status and to start EU negotiations, provoking an unprecedented series of 3 "No" to EuroReferenda and 3 Majoriy Abstentions in EU Parliament Elections : 1999, 2005 and 2009, (even if the latest one succeeded to decelerate and almost stop the drop of participation rates, opening hopes for vote's revival after an electoral campaign clearly critical to Turkey's claims in several mainstream EU countries)
Therefore, Buzek was faced with manifold critical Questions on EU Enlargement, most of them citting concrete examples of certain political problems : But his replies were almost always given as a matter of general principle :
F.ex. Questioned on the suspension of EU - Croatia talks because of a Border conflict with EU Member Slovenia, Buzek prefered to speak about principles :
- "We know that during Enlargement, the process can be blocked by failure to resolve this kind of issues", This concerns also other enlargments' cases", and "these rules are always in force" he warned.
But Buzek avoided to directly reply to a queston on "French and German EPP' calls to define the Borders of Europe", as a German journalist asked him by making a reference to French President Nicolas Sarkozy, and German Chancellor Angie Merkel's, critical statements on Turkey at the June 2009 Electoral campain.
- "Concerning Enlargement, there's always the same rules : There have to be Criteria, which have to be respected if a Country wants to join the EU", he started to simply reply.
- "For my country (Poland) it took us 15 Years to fullfil these Criteria", Buzek reminded, indicating, if proportions are kept, that Turkey, fex. would have to spend some 25 years before eventually joining the EU..
- "Countries wishing to join the EU need to Change their Systems", as we (Poland and other former Eastern European Countries) did, he stressed.
- "'For me, meeting the condition of Human Rights is one of the Key conditions for membership in the EU", preferring again to speak from the point of view of General Principles, on the occasion of an untimely question on Serbia (which is not even a candidate yet)...
- "Turkey" has, "first of all", to fullfil (EU) Copenhagen criteria". Bevause, currently, none of them is fullfiled by Turkey", New EU Parliament's President, denounced, speaking later to a group of Journalists, including "EuroFora".
In particular, on Human Rights : - "We (EU) can never forget Human Rights", because "this is at the very Foundations of the EU", Buzek added.
On the contrary, when he referred to EU Enlargment for the "Western Balkans Countries ", Buzek appeared upbeat, finding "promising situations", despite "difficulties" in the Past, since "Countries are queuing to become EU members", and this "generated changes", as he said.
As for Russia, Buzek observed that it was a "very important" country, located "in the same Continent", Europe, "close to our borders", and "we need eachother". "But Russia' has 'differend poblems : "They claim that their system is Democratic, but rules are differend", and we must be "aware of such differencies", fex. "on Human Rights", that we can't ignore, as he said;
Concerning China, where a journalist observed that the recipient of EU Parliament's latest "Sakharov prize" for freedom of thought is "still in prison", Buzek found that since the 1999 events in Tien Amin square, "we see differencies on Human Rights still today", and expressed his "support" for those who try to ameliorate the situation.
On the contrary, speaking recently to "EuroFora" he strongly supported the idea for an EU - Ukraine cooperation, fex. between Airbus and Antonov, in order to build a less costly but more performant than the old and problematic A400M, new Military Transport Airplane : - "They (Ukranian Antonov Company) can certainly do it. I'm sure they can. It's a good Idea, and I'd be glad if it was done", he told us. (See : http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/airbusantonov.html )

Across The Northwest And Nation, A 'Steady And Alarming' Loss Of Health Officials As COVID Surges
By Anna King • Nov 24, 2020
Community members in the Spokane area demonstrated in favor of county health officer Dr. Bob Lutz after he was forced out and later fired by the county board of health.
Libby Kamrowski/ THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW
Lauri Jones has been working in public health in Washington's Okanogan County for 17 years.
But after repeated threats to her safety, she recently got a new security system for her home.
"I still find myself sometimes looking over my shoulder," Jones says. "Especially if I walk out of the building and it's getting obviously dark earlier."
She's not leaving her post as the community health director. But her colleague Dr. John McCarthy is in December. He says the workload has become too heavy.
"I know that my colleague (Lauri Jones) was threatened multiple times, and in social media, and in very inappropriate ways," McCarthy says. "We don't have to be happy that there's a pandemic going on, but to blame individuals is not going to be helpful."
"Steady and alarming"
Earlier this year, anti-mask demonstrators protested outside the home of Spokane County health officer Dr. Bob Lutz. He was recently fired by the county board of health, sparking a backlash and calls for the state health board to investigate. (Lutz didn't respond to multiple interview requests for this story.) In the Benton and Franklin County region, a petition is circulating to remove a health official in the Tri-Cities. In Yakima County, the health director recently resigned. And in Whitman County, home to Washington State University in Pullman, the health director just departed for a job overseas. At the state level, Washington Health Officer Dr. Kathy Lofy announced she will resign her position.

Lori Freeman calls the loss of top public health officers across the country "steady and alarming." Freeman heads the National Association of County and City Health Officials. More than 70 have been fired, left or plan to leave their posts since the pandemic began in the U.S. In fact, so many are leaving, she's keeping a spreadsheet.
"Some of our public health officials have been physically threatened, politically scapegoated," Freeman says. "Their roles have been diminished, their authorities have been in some cases taken away."
This is happening while Freeman was already anticipating an exodus due to Baby Boomer retirements in the next few years. That was before the pandemic. Freeman says that since February, the outsized workload has made things worse. And Freeman says fresh energy is needed on the public health front.
"We have to get through the vaccination stage where we are actively deploying and vaccinating the country," Freeman says.
Little federal aid
More staff, more supplies, more organization nationally could help with the pandemic, health workers say.
Freeman says the outsized workload hasn't let up since February. And for years before COVID-19 , health officials say they'd been underfunded, with staff cut to the minimum.
It's been months since Congress passed the one and only COVID-19 relief act, called the CARES Act, signed into law in March.
Senator Patty Murray of Washington says the U.S. House of Representatives tried to fund more relief in May. But, Murray says, "(Senate) Majority Leader Mitch McConnell would not bring it up."
Murray says she's deeply concerned about the attrition of top doctors, nurses, and public health officials across the country. She says President Donald Trump has politicized the pandemic.
"He's refused to listen to the science," she says. "He's refused to listen to the expertise of public health officials who are on the ground making decisions about how to address the virus and keep their communities safe. It's an enormous emotional toll when they are not believed for the profession that they are trained in."
Oregon Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici calls it "beyond frustrating."
She says the HEROES Act that the U.S. House has passed is just waiting for the Senate to take action. The legislation would provide more than $1 trillion of aid to state, local governments and tribes to respond to the pandemic.
"It's so short sighted that public health has been underfunded," she says.
Washington State Health Officer Dr. Kathy Lofy has been front-and-center in the state's pandemic response and regular news media briefings. She is leaving her job soon.

Plus, Bonamici says, COVID-19 doesn't know boundaries: cities, farms, Democrats, Republicans. She says with COVID-19 case rates moving upward, at particular risk are smaller communities with limited health care systems.
"Health care workers in those communities … are seeing people they know [get sick]," Bonamici says. "If we don't turn this around, they are going to go to the hospital and the hospital is going to be full."
Unrelenting attacks
Karen Koenemann has a few waning weeks left at her post on Colorado's Western Slope. She's the public health director for Pitkin County, and she didn't really know she was burnt out until the nasty emails started coming. Early in the pandemic, a press release went out from her office with a quote from her.
"It was something like, 'I really hope we don't see an increase in cases in our community,' or something like that," Koenemann says.
Despite the fairly mundane quote, she received a stinging email. A community member accused her of not understanding the pandemic.
"[They] said 'You are a derelict of duty by even saying that, you should be fired,'" she recalls.
Another woman health director in Colorado was called out by aggressive radio ads taken out by a group called "Colorado Counties for Freedom." The ads called for her authority to be stripped. The public health director's car was also vandalized.
Koenemann, on Colorado's Western Slope, says she's tired of the attacks and tired of getting little help from community leaders.
"I felt alone, and so I just started to cry in the meeting," she says. "That was sort of how [my burnout] came out. You know, I would be crying in a meeting with the sheriff and the county manager."
Konenemann resigned her position as public health director. She plans to move to Alaska.

CDC Helps State Test For Valley Fever In Eastern Washington Soil

The emergence of nine cases of a fungal infection known as Valley Fever in southeast Washington over the last five years has state and federal health officials concerned. This week, the state and the CDC are launching a $50,000 study.
Northwest Mumps Outbreak Puzzles Health Officials
By Emily Schwing • Jan 9, 2017

Most of the music you hear on the radio today is developed for making money. It doesn't feel true or honest. You can feel it in the music.
Iris DeMent
Iris DeMent's quotes
Maybe I spent more time dwelling on emotions than some people, and maybe that's why I ended up writing.
Writing, overall, has never been what I'd call fun. It's fulfilling. It doesn't come real easy for me.
I've always been aware of having feelings that were pretty intense at times. I imagine most people have had that, or they wouldn't be human.
This is how it has been since time began: If you want to make something really worthwhile and true, then you have to suffer for it.
If something bothers me, it bothers me for a long time until I find a way to work it out. Music provided me with a means of working things out.
My guitar is really tempermental. I don't give up on it though, I'm close to my guitar!
I don't know what other people are like, I haven't been able to crawl inside anybody else.
I've always written about things that cause me to feel something.
I don't describe myself as a Christian or religious, but I like to think that how I live my life is honest.
I was mainly influenced by the Carter Family, Jimmie Rodgers, Loretta Lynn, Merle Haggard, and others like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash.
Turn off the TV and start digging around for information that's not from a corporation trying to make money.
For a long time I was interested in being a social worker. In a lot of ways I feel that that's all my music is, trying to help people.
I honestly don't listen to a lot of music - I spend so much time working at my own music.
I never set out to write songs about the world around me... it just kind of came about as a result of paying more attention to things.
Making the record was tons of fun, the most fun I've ever had.
I also do not like the idea of soft money, these issue ads - people don't know where the money is coming from, millions and millions of dollars outside of the control of a candidate - there's no accountability.
Scott McCallum
Stories come from other shows at other studios where only 2,000 rounds were actually used and the money for the other 3,000 went right into the studio pockets. Corners were cut and that production suffered. Knock wood, that hasn't happened to us.
Vic Morrow
Never play anything that don't sound right. You might not make any money, but at least you won't get hostile with yourself.
Don't make music for some vast, unseen audience or market or ratings share or even for something as tangible as money. Though it's crucial to make a living, that shouldn't be your inspiration. Do it for yourself.
When I sent those scripts, that was the lowest point of my life. We'd just had our second son, and when I went to collect them from hospital, I went to the bank to try and get some money to buy some diapers, the screen showed I've got $26 left.
One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.
I would rather take the role and work and make my own money and self respect than to have sex with someone who has a lot of money.
People may take a job for more money, but they often leave it for more recognition.
I make no claim to being a business genius. You can make so much money in this business that it loses its value.
It costs a great deal of money to do a musical, and the more money involved, the more big business influences the artform.
Hal Price
The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.
Peter Buffett
Your team has to understand that coming into the ABA, you have to have your investments right and sponsorships and people ready to give you money so they can back you up.
I wanted to be an actress. In college I was a serious feminist and very political. I was determined to get one thing out of my career and that was respect. I didn't want money. I didn't care about fame.
Christine Lahti
A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.
If you're a producer, you always spend too much money because you want that shot - and you're willing to spend a bundle to get it.
Bill Kurtis
We are demonstrating for services for all the people and not just services for money. It's very important that this message goes to the European Parliament today.
I write plays not to make money, but to stop myself from going mad. Because it's my way of making the world rational to me.
It's important not to limit the amount of their own money that candidates can spend, but to give other people access to enough money to run competitive races.
Christie Hefner
The rule is not to talk about money with people who have much more or much less than you.
Katherine Whitehorn
It's about the power of design and the power of the human spirit. It's above paying anybody to do something stupid for money like reality television does - like ambushing people.
Today, they're just up there for the money, just packaged and be gone.
The unions claim the deck is stacked against them when it comes to labor laws, but the truth is many private and public sector workers are forced to pay union dues as a condition of their employment, yet they have little say in how the unions spend their money.
Linda Chavez
A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.
Almost the only persons who may be said to comprehend even approximately the significance, principles, and purposes of Socialism are the chief leaders of the extreme wings of the Socialistic forces, and perhaps a few of the money kings themselves.
Benjamin Tucker
We spend more than a million dollars a year on our colleges and university, and it is money well spent; but we must have education that fits not the few but the many for the business of life.
Arthur Capper
A lot of people love Oreos. So their manufacturer is making money. That means more dividends for shareholders.
But all the money in the world cannot make you happy either, so there has to be a balance.
The bottom line is that these athletes tend to be safer investments because they really value their marketing opportunities. They don't make as much money as during their active careers.
In precisely the same way money is often hired, and the hire paid for the use of it is called Interest.
John Buchanan Robinson
I'm going to win so much money this year, my caddie will make the top twenty money winner's list.
Lee Trevino
I'm very excited to see where the characters and their relationships go. But in the end, it really boils down to the people who have more power than me, who control the money.

Q: How to add new line separator into data for oracle I'm working on displaying data from oracle.
is there a way to make the following data inside the table:
example :

'1.somedata, 2.somedata, 3.somedata, 4.somedata, 5.somedata'

to display like:
example:

'1. somedata
   2. somedata
   3. somedata
   4. somedata
   5. somedata'

on the interface?
do i add new line separator directly into the data?
or do i separator them into new line when i query it?
or is there any other simple way?
Thanks.

A: There are so many ways to do this, here is one if you are selecting from a column:
 SELECT REPLACE ('1.somedata, 2.somedata, 3.somedata, 4.somedata, 5.somedata', ',', CHR (13) || CHR (10)) AS split
      FROM DUAL;
1.somedata
 2.somedata
 3.somedata
 4.somedata
 5.somedata

A: I personally would use the listagg function and use '' as the delimiter.
SELECT LISTAGG(last_name, ' ')
         WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY hire_date, last_name) "Emp_list",
       MIN(hire_date) "Earliest"
  FROM employees
  WHERE department_id = 30;

A: Check below sample query which converts coma separated list data into rows
SELECT substr( '1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,',
                               ( case when rownum = 1      then 1
                                      else instr( '1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,', ',', 1, rownum - 1 ) + 1
                                  end ),

                                instr( substr( '1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,',
                                                                     ( case when rownum = 1    then 1
                                                                            else instr( '1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,', ',', 1, rownum - 1 ) + 1
                                                                        end )
                                ), ',' ) - 1

            ) as data
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= length( '1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,' ) - length ( replace('1.AL,2.AL,3.AL,4.AL,5.AL,6.AL,', ',') )

Hope this will help you!

A: Remember that Apex is generating a web page, which means the end result is HTML. Apex, however, will also sometimes escape special HTML characters for you, like < and &. Since you're viewing a table, I assume the source of your data is a query and your "somedata" field is a single column. Try this:
SELECT REPLACE( somedata_column, ',', '

Asbestos is a mineral made of crystalline structures. The 1950s to the mid 1970s marked the peak of asbestos mining and usage. Asbestos may be found in insulation material, automotive brakes or wallboard. Known for its ability to release particles that cause mesothelioma, a form of lung cancer, when inhaled, the federal government prohibited the production of asbestos-containing products in the 1970s.
Asbestos fibers are lightweight, which is why they are easily handled by contruction workers and other industrial workers. Continuous asbestos exposure increases the risk of developing lung cancer by up to 5 times. Those that suffer asbestos exposure can bring action of file suit against the parties responsible. They may also be entitled to recover compensation for their medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.
Victims of asbestos exposure have a limited time to bring suit for their injuries. If you are a victim of asbestos exposure, it is important to research and understand your rights. A personal injury lawyer can help you with your asbestos exposure case and guide you through the legal process, so you can get the compensation you deserve for your pain and suffering and lost wages.
Once you become aware of potential asbestos exposure, it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer immediately. Contact Attorney Search Network to find a personal injury lawyer in your area that can assist you.

Some light amid the labour gloom
News on the labour front over the recent past — and the past week — has involved ongoing infighting, death threats, an assassination and the petrol bombing of a union president's house. Little wonder then that an important labour law development has gone largely unnoticed.
The "three month rule" regarding temporary or "casual" employment is now in force. This adds further protection against the possible abuse of "lower paid employees". And lower paid is defined as anyone earning less than R205 433 a year (R17 119 a month), well above what more than half the working population earns.
It is certainly more than the money paid by the Economic Freedom Fighters to now retrenched party workers, a number of whom are taking their cases to the Commission for Conciliation Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA). The party maintains that they were "volunteers" or "deployees" and, as such, do not qualify as employees.
These cases were flagged last week in the City Press and several of the former party workers claimed to have written employment contracts and that Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) payments had been deducted from their pay. But all such workers did not apparently have contracts.
However, although every employee should ensure that he or she has a contract of employment before starting work, this is not the sole determinant of employment. Nor is the failure to deduct UIF contributions.
Even the existence of a contract that defines a low-paid, long serving worker as an "independent contractor" — a common ploy to "casualise" labour — does not necessarily mean the the person is not an employee. In a case currently before the CCMA, an isiXhosa speaking worker, after having been in the job for 12 years, was given a multi-page legal contract to sign that defined him as an independent contractor.
The contract was not translated, he was merely told to initial each page and sign, something he says he thought was merely another condition of his work. He worked for a further six years and was then dismissed. at one month's notice.
Even in the Post Office, as the postal unions have pointed out, there have been workers who have laboured on a casual basis for as long as ten years. This now becomes illegal although the problem — as always — will be with enforcement.
This is an ongoing problem, blamed by the unions on a shortage of labour inspectors. But the unions are also at fault for not identifying and highlighting breaches of the law.
As it stands, the existing legislation regarding temporary employment services — "labour brokers" — still applies. This is that the workers supplied on a temporary basis to another employer are the employees of the provider of the labour. As such they qualify for the same pay and conditions as any other employee.
And despite the inevitable grumbling from the business sector, both the former law and the new amendments accept the need for temporary employment wherever this is justified. A classic, listed, example being seasonal work. The object is clearly to provide added protection to vulnerable workers while accepting the reality of casual labour.
However, there is not the same sort of clarity about workers regarded as volunteers. And there are many of them, especially in the non-governmental sector. The EFF cases should help to clarify the law — or possibly close up a potential loophole — regarding the position of claimed volunteer workers or, in the case of political parties, "deployees".
The three EFF members of parliament who were recently dismissed by the party are also taking their case to court in an attempt to regain their seats. But this, despite claims to the contrary, is not a labour dispute.
The argument of the dismissed MPs will almost certainly hinge on the EFF constitution. But a central feature of this states that "the individual is subordinate to the organization, the minority is subordinate to the majority, the lower level is subordinate to the higher level, and the entire EFF is subordinate to the Central Command Team" that ordered the dismissal.

The advice message is no longer in place.
An advice message has been issued to Mitchell Park residents after aircraft was called to help extinguish a bushfire burning along McCartneys Road.
A state control centre spokeswoman said five CFA appliances were called to reports of a roadside fire burning between the roadside and a fenceline.
She said the fire had been classified as small. Firefighters were called to the scene before 1pm and the fire is now extinguished.
The CFA has urged residents tocontinue to stay informed and monitor conditions.
The fire comes as much of the state experiences blistering conditions.Emergency Management Victoria'sstate response controller Stephanie Rotarangi told Fairfax Media six regions were most at risk.
"Temperatures are predicted to be between 33 degrees and 40 degrees across the Mallee, the Wimmera, the south-west part of the state, the central, the northern-central and north-east," Ms Rotarangi said.
Ms Rotarangi said conditions were expected to persist across Saturday night with "little relief", with a cool change coming in sometime on Sunday.
"But this is no time to be complacent with the hot weather," she said.
She said it was a great time to make sure people were prepared and knew their fire risks if a fire started.
"Talk to your family about the fire risks where you live or where you are travelling," Ms Rotarangi said.

It began as a housing marvel. Built in 1956, Pruitt-Igoe was heralded as the model public housing project of the future, "the poor man's penthouse." Two decades later, it ended in rubble - its razing an iconic event that the architectural theorist Charles Jencks famously called "the death of modernism." The footage and images of its implosion have helped to perpetuate a myth of failure, a failure that has been used to critique Modernist architecture, attack public assistance programs, and stigmatize public housing residents.
The Pruitt-Igoe Myth seeks to set the historical record straight. To examine the interests involved in Pruitt-Igoe's creation. To re-evaluate the rumors and the stigma. To implode the myth.

About Walk On Foundation Inc.
The idea of Walk On Foundation began back in April of 2006 when Joshua Richard organized a band festival to help raise funds for those dealing with Multiple Sclerosis. This festival was called Walk On Fest 2006 and hosted a number of bands and vendors. The event went well, however Josh was left feeling there was more he could do to help on a more broad base.
In the summer of 2007 a few friends came to Josh wanting to discuss how we could do more in our community. At that point Walk On Foundation was created and assisted persons in Central PA with basic necessity needs (shelter, food, clothing). While we were able to assist a number of families in Central PA we felt the need to assist further.
In August of 2008 Josh's wife Kristy came upon a website called Wish Upon A Hero. At this site their tagline is "No wish is too large. No hero is too small." Josh and Kristy began assisting persons through this site personally. Recognizing the potential this platform had in assisting others Josh and Kristy sent a message of interest to the founder, Dave Girgenti. Dave loved the idea of having a program on his website called Walk On Heroes which would assist with basic necessities. Walk On Heroes was created and began granting numerous needs through the Wish Upon A Hero site.
On July 1st, 2009 after assisting with many basic necessity needs, Walk On Heroes reorganized their efforts to assist only with medical needs.
On August 9th, 2009 Walk On Heroes decided that they wanted to expand and help others not only on Wish Upon A Hero but wherever possible. At this time our organization applied for 501c3 status under the name Walk On Foundation Inc. Effective 9/29/09 we became an official 501c3 non profit.
Our goal is to "Step Up and Leave A Mark" while helping others with medical needs.
To reach us please email us at joshua@walkonfoundation.com.
